No one was injured when a 16-year-old Ripon boy drove his car into the back of Johnson School Bus in the Town of Fond du Lac this morning. The Fond du Lac Sheriff’s Office got a 911 call at 7:18 am about the crash on State Highway 23 just west of Esterbrook Road. The bus was stopped westbound on State Highway 23 to pick up a student. The student and the 24-year-old Theresa man driving the bus were the only occupants on it. As the bus began moving forward it was struck from behind by a passenger car driven by the Ripon teen. The front end of the car went underneath the bus. The teen was the only one in the car. All of the buses warning lights had been activated prior to the crash. The teen was issued a citation for causing the crash. The car had to be towed from the scene.
